  • The Endgame in European Grocery
    THE ENDGAME IN EUROPEAN GROCERY EXPECT HALF AS MANY LARGE GROCERS IN EUROPE BY 2025 THE ENDGAME IN EUROPEAN GROCERY EXPECT HALF AS MANY LARGE GROCERS IN EUROPE BY 2025 Against a weak economic backdrop, old growth models based on store expansion, national consolidation, and diversification are no longer delivering the like-for-likes board members and investors want to see. As well as a saturated marketplace, there is increasing competition from discounters and newer online retailers like AmazonFresh. In response, we believe that the European grocery market will begin consolidating internationally so that, by 2025, the total number of large grocers in Europe will have halved. Weak demand, a decline of traditional growth engines, and the aggressive growth of specialist competitors such as discounters (Exhibit 1) will continue to drive the next ten years’ of change in European grocery. As the pressure mounts, expect to see more headlines about price wars, stock value erosion, races to form buying alliances, and even the occasional market exit. With this in mind, we think there are four questions grocers should be considering today to ensure a successful future, listed below and explained in more detail in the rest of the article: How can we deliver a step change in our approach to cost? 1 Cost leadership is becoming a necessity. How can asset productivity be increased? 2 Only business models with high levels of asset productivity will survive. What are our options to grow internationally? 3 Scale matters – and international growth is one of the few ways to drive scale. What more could we be doing to hold on to and build 4 customer relationships? With new competitors on the scene, increasing the ‘stickiness’ of customers is crucial.

  • Out of Sight: Modern Slavery in Pacific Supply Chains of Canned Tuna

Yet reports of severe human rights abuses, including forced labour, slavery, human trafficking and child labour, are rife. Modern slavery is endemic in this industry, where the tuna supply chain is remote, complex and opaque. Few stories leak out about conditions but, when they do, they are often horrendous: with migrant workers bought and sold as unpaid slaves, and tossed overboard if they complain or get injured. In this context of abuse, the buyers – canned tuna companies and supermarkets – have an obligation to ensure their supply chains are not infested with slavery. Increasingly, they also have legal obligations under UK and Australian modern slavery laws.

  • Pyaterochka Opens New Distribution Centre in Kursk Region
    PYATEROCHKA OPENS NEW DISTRIBUTION CENTRE IN KURSK REGION Kursk, 10 June 2021 – X5 Group (“X5” or the “Company”), a leading Russian food retailer (LSE and MOEX ticker: “FIVE”), announces the expansion of its logistics infrastructure in central Russia with the opening of a Pyaterochka distribution centre (DC) in the Kursk region. With a total floor area in excess of 40,600 sq m, the Kursk DC features five storage zones (fresh products, fruit and vegetables, frozen goods, alcoholic beverages, and a dry storage facility). Each zone has a specific temperature band that is best suited to keep relevant products fresh. At full capacity, the DC will supply food products to 730 Pyaterochka stores in the Kursk, Orel, Belgorod and Bryansk regions. The logistics facility is expected to handle 3,000 tonnes of goods per day, with its seamless operation supported by nearly 550 employees and 170 vehicles. Overall, Pyaterochka has created upwards of 2,400 jobs in the Kursk region. The launch of the new DC will enable the region’s manufacturers not only to reduce their transportation costs, but also to expand the geography of their sales. When operating at full capacity, the logistics facility will be able to handle products from about 1,000 suppliers, driving up the share of local producers in the chain’s regional sales (over 80% in certain categories). Today, Pyaterochka works with 17 suppliers from the Kursk region, including Kurskmakaronprom (dry goods), Kursk Milk (dairy), and Mushroom Rainbow (fruit and vegetables). The Kursk DC will serve stores previously supplied by the Orel DC, which is due to be closed because the capacity and equipment no longer meet Pyaterochka’s needs.
